What Buyers Say

TCL QM6K Series 55QM6K 55"

88 out of 100 medium confidence 27 reviews

The TCL QM6K series is widely praised for its excellent picture quality, vibrant colors, deep blacks, and impressive 144Hz refresh rate, making it a top choice for both gaming and streaming. Users highlight the easy setup, intuitive Google TV interface (despite some ad clutter), and great value for the price. Common minor complaints include mediocre built-in speakers, a bright yellow LED indicator, and glare in very bright rooms, but most agree these are easily mitigated with a soundbar or simple adjustments.

Pros
  • Excellent picture quality and vibrant colors
  • Deep blacks and good contrast
  • 144Hz refresh rate for smooth gaming
  • Easy setup and intuitive Google TV
  • Great value for the price
Cons
  • Mediocre built-in speakers

  • Glare in very bright rooms
  • Google TV interface has many ads
  • Sound adjustment not available via optical output

75 out of 100 low confidence 8 reviews

This small TV is generally well-liked for its price, picture quality, and ease of setup, especially in kitchens or RVs. However, one verified buyer reported a serious issue with the bundle: the legs and mount did not fit the TV, making it a poor value compared to buying separately. The volume is noted as a bit low by some, but overall it's seen as a good budget option.

Pros
  • Great price
  • Good picture quality
  • Easy to set up
  • Lightweight
  • Perfect for small spaces
Cons
  • Bundle legs and mount don't fit
  • Low volume
  • Confusing mounting instructions
